Assessments Scheduled within 24 hours, 7 Days a Week

Club Recovery’s chemical health assessments are available on a flexible schedule. Generally, we can arrange a next day appointment. We offer our assessments 7 days a week, by appointment. We want to be available for our clients whenever they need our help.

Club Recovery’s chemical health assessments are based on an in-depth interview conducted by our licensed counselors that will evaluate whether a client’s chemical use (drug and/or alcohol) is problematic or addictive. Club Recovery’s assessment appointments are approximately 2 hours in length:

1st Hour – The client reviews and completes medical privacy paperwork. The client fills out background information packets to help their counselor understand the issues and needs that the client wants our help addressing.

2nd Hour – The client meets for a one-to-one interview with a Licensed Drug and Alcohol Counselor (LADC).

Following the client’s assessment interview, our staff promptly completes and mails our clients a professional and individualized chemical health assessment report that will include:

An in-depth summary of background and supporting information provided by the client to their counselor during the interview portion of the assessment and from written materials completed by the client during the assessment appointment.

A determination of whether the client meets medical criteria for a diagnosis of substance abuse or chemical dependence.

When appropriate, our assessments will also include a recommendation for education and/or treatment for clients who meet criteria of chemical (alcohol and/or drug) abuse or dependence or who would benefit from additional information about addiction or chemical health issues.
